The owner wants to sell the house, but also be allowed to live there (possibly for free, maybe pay rent, not sure yet) until they close on their next property.

Most HOA's are allowed to do this and in many instances not much you can do.

Hi Noah,I recall seeing a post on BP that said Sacramento did not allow short term rentals. 

Is there a site out there that pulls in data from probate, divorce, absentee owners etc does a deal analysis to allow you to spend time on equity positioned properties and then also has SEO capabilities with a website attached and a robust CRM?

Snow you can allow a prospective tenant access, but most states won't allow you to discuss price or contract/lease terms.Not trying to tell you what to do, just trying to help you understand risks, so you can make better decisions:)

Thats an easy fix DSCR all the way we do not look at income or employment.  1031 allows you to move the funds into the next property tax free.
